The first Harry Potter: Wizards Unite gameplay footage has surfaced, and it builds upon Pokémon GO’s augmented reality technology. This free-to-play, location-based augmented reality game inspired by the Wizarding World is being developed by WB Games San Francisco and Niantic.

Players can visit real-world locations while casting spells, discovering mysterious artifacts, and encountering iconic characters as well as legendary beasts from the Harry Potter universe. Despite the company confirming that the game will be released some time in 2019, no release date has yet been set, though rumors are swirling of a summer 2019 launch.
